It's been a fascinating thing because we didn't really know how to write when we started South Park at all. It's been like, we've just sort of grown up a bit and it's amazing to just see how, if you take Butters and Cartman and put them in any scene, it works.
Me and Matt love to argue, but in general our sense of humor is pretty much alike.
My fear is that, as soon as I get married and have kids that I'll kind of do what a lot of people do and suddenly start making, 'Now I'm gonna make films for kids.' I really hope I don't do that.
If we have a great idea, we'll go, 'Oh, this could be a cool movie.' Or really for us, it's more like, 'Oh, this is a really bad idea. Let's do this. This seems really stupid.'
The Republicans didn't want the government to run your life, because Jesus should. That was really part of their thing: less government, more Jesus. Now it's like, how about more government and Jesus?
Before the church responded, a lot of people would ask us, 'Are you afraid of what the church would say?' And Trey and I were like, 'They're going to be cool.' And they were like, 'No, they're not. There are going to be protests.' And we were like, 'Nope, they're going to be cool.' We weren't that surprised by the church's response. We had faith in them.
You know that everyone thinks that in order to do South Park we must be wild, crazy, rock and roll stars. But the truth is we're just wholesome middle-American guys. We enjoy soda pop, baseball and beating up old people just as much as anybody
We created a brand for ourselves, so that now people can't get mad at what we do, because then they're just making of themselves.
It's an Afghanistan goat, so it can't stay here, or else it'll choke on the sweet air of freedom.
Living is having ups and downs and sharing them with friends.
I hate puppets so much. I dream about puppets all night. I see strings on people. The nice thing is we can just take a puppet and put it in front of a wall and blow the shit out of it.
It's not like we have a formula, but I think one of the reasons this show has survived is that it has a big heart at its center. Other cartoon shows have people crap on each other and make racist jokes. But I don't think people tune in for that. I just don't think a show lasts for 10 years without a heart.
What we're always looking for is weird social issues and weird connections to make. Luckily for them, there's no shortage of material.
We're the guys who, if someone says you really shouldn't do an episode making fun of Scientologists, we say, 'Whatever.' Someone says, 'They might come try to burn your house down,' we say, 'We'll just get another one.'
I think that parents only get so offended by television because they rely on it as a babysitter and the sole educator of their kids.
Even if you're not Christian, just from being in our culture you know Jesus and resurrection and redemption.
I can feel myself dying inside.
You don't need missionaries in Colorado; you got Colorado.
Once you have kids, you think like a parent. You get a lot more protective.
I find Mormons adorable.
I don't want to say never, but I hope I don't become that 'take me seriously now' guy.
I just realized that there are going to be a lot of painful times in life, so I better learn to deal with them in the right way.
I would let my kids watch this stuff way before I'd let them watch something like 'Full House' that I think would make them stupid.
Well I looked in my moms closet and saw what I was getting for Christmas, an ultravibe pleasure 2000.
I bought a house for my mom, I bought a house for my dad, I bought a house for my sister.
